DATE: July 15, 2010 RE: Codification of the Active Transportation Advisory Committee Attached please find the ordinance I drafted to change the name of the Sidewalk and Trails Task Force (changed from Sidewalk and Trails Advisory Committee in 2003) to the Active Transportation Advisory Committee pursuant to your instructions. Please review this ordinance to ensure all terms are as you want them. I pretty much copied the original purpose and duties in the Resolutions. I did change the duty to approve the Sidewalk and Trails Master Plan to a recommendation of approval. The City Council would need to approve any such Master Plan (as it does for streets) before a Master Plan would have any force or effect within our code. I left everything else pretty much as stated in the earlier Resolutions. ORDINANCE NO.
